July, the birthday month

I will be away to Wuxi from Mon, 16th to Sat, 21st July'07.

Not sure if it is because I am born in July, and thus I pay more attention to birthdays in July, or because really many people were born in July. ;-p

Just to name a few:

Sham's - 4th July

My dad's - 10th July (if remember correctly, Wai Yee and Jackie Cheung share the same bday also)

Max's - 11th July

Kenneth's & Jet Kie's - 12th July

Mike - 14th July

Mei Yan's - 15th July

My niece's - 17th July

Far'east's - 20th July

Wallace's - 21st July

Alex's - 24th July

My sis' - 31st July

My birthday falls on 19th July, and I am blessed to "celebrate" it with my twin bro in States (we were born ON the same day) and Shirley (who is 2 years older).

This year, I am celebrating in Wuxi. Real summer birthday for the first time. It's not gonna be fun coz it's gonna be hot.

Pray hard that those bad throats and bad nose I have been supressing for so long will not explode there. Else, Mr. Fever, Mr. Cough, Ms. Flu will come and visit me at one go.

Well, received my first birthday present from him. Because he didn't know my actual date then, he gave it to me in June when I was leaving for Wuxi for 2 weeks, fearing he might missed my birthday by the time I tell him the date. It's my first birthday present in years, to be honest. And I guess it's not cheap. [And remember, I mentioned in May, that the wallet I was using very old already? It's a great gift, isn't it?]

He also gave me a hp strap with bell, bought in Narita Airport. The bell reminds me of him whenever it rang. "For safe journey", he said.

Next, he gave me the infamous coffee from Vietnam with a maker. I have yet tried the coffee. But I am grateful he thought of me whenever he travels. :-)
